Solar Saves Homeowners
So Much!
Lower Your Utilities
The average United States utility bill averages between $150-200 per month! Utility rates have doubled or tripled in the last few years - isn’t it time to cut out the middleman and use the sun? Homeowners report savings of up to $2,000 per year by going solar.
Sun Power Your Home
The sun is the cleanest, most abundant resource on earth! There are no peak hours. No need to worry about it going out. No outdated power grids. This gives you security in even the worst weather conditions.
Solar is the Future
Installers use high quality solar panels and high quality equipment. Warranties cover parts and maintenance for any parts in the event of bad weather. Also - solar panels don’t “break.” They simply lose efficiency over time.
Government Incentives Can Save You Tens of Thousands INSTANTLY
We make going solar even more irresistible with government incentives, tax credits, and rebates.
Our experts guide homeowners through the process, ensuring they take full advantage of all savings opportunities.
It makes your transition to solar smart AND financially savvy.
Think of solar panels as special mats that we put on roofs. They are really good at catching sunlight, just like how a sponge soaks up water. Here's what happens next:
Sunlight to Electricity:
When the sun shines on these panels, they turn the sunlight into electricity. It's like magic!
Using the Electricity:
This electricity then travels through wires into your house. It can be used to turn on your lights, TV, and fridge.
Extra Energy:
If the panels make more electricity
than you need, it can be stored in a battery for later or sent back to a big pool of electricity that everyone uses.
So, solar panels are like sun-catching mats that help turn sunlight into electricity for your house!
Frequently Asked Questions
Why Switch to Solar?
Aside from saving money on electric bills, getting a huge tax incentive and adding property value; solar is great for the environment!
Should I Install Solar if My Roof Is Old?
For many homeowners, it’s advisable to get a roof quote at the same time as you get a solar quote to make sure that there are no defects on your roof. However, solar panels themselves are very light and simple to install - so you don’t need to have a brand new roof.
How Do Solar Panels Work?
Sunlight travels through the solar panels on your roof, activating specially charged wires inside the glass surface. The wires create currents of electricity that are converted into the type of power your home uses (AC) via the use of an inverter and batteries.
How Long Do Solar Panels Last?
Most solar panels have 25 year warranties, but many panels last longer than that. They don’t “break” in the typical fashion, they simply lose fractional efficiency over time (eventually providing less and less power).
What Solar Incentives Are There?
The government is currently offering 30% incentives to install solar. This means that if you buy a $10,000 system, you would qualify for $3,000 in government rebates. Some states (Delaware, North Carolina, Rhode Island, Oregon, Texas, Connecticut for example) have programs that now pay these rebates when the systems are installed. Some states pay for excess solar production.
How Long Does the Solar Rebate Last?
Experts believe the solar rebate will exist in some form for the next 10 years, but there is no guarantee for how long it will remain at 30%.
